Another great weekend of racing.
But why is it that every consolation race had the panther cars starting on the front rows.

steve jude should of got disquilfied for his hit after the flag, but that would still see the hawkeyes into the final, so that could be the reason for not saying anything, however would of put the mustangs into 3rd and 4th run off and the gaints into 5th and 6th, also barr took a huge hit mid turn two (there are two concers lol) im sure he was knocked out for a lap foot to the foor hence two wild wall rides. think you will find no stering was involed in enither. You think, or you know? |

Have just spoken to the referee. Steve got fined $200 for the hit after the flag. the race was over and had been won cleanly, the hit didn't result in any major damage thus a disqualification would have been unjust. There were several drivers fined for misdemeanors over the weekend , a couple got excluded and many more were spoken to. Mostly though the Referee was pretty happy with the way the drivers raced. |

I'm starting to think we should have you schedule a meeting with Rod on the Monday/Tuesday after big Superstock meetings to get clarifications/updates for us. Unless we can convince him to come on here and let us know himself. |

A personal bugbear of mine is the lack of correspondence between officials and the paying public.
Every other sport on the planet makes sure fans are informed with regards to officiating decisions except New Zealand Speedway. I'm not sure what the problem is with keeping fans informed but is it any wonder rumour and innuendo gets out of control when the fans are not informed about what's going on in the meeting they have paid to attend?

I doubt he would post though as he has no need or desire to enter into any arguments. |

I won't pretend I heard everything said by the commentators this weekend but I was assured that much information was passed to them from the officials box. Dare I say much of the problem lies with the commentary teams not being organised to or willing to ask for info at many of the large meetings. And then sometimes they don't relay the info they are given. Speedway has improved in this area of things but there is still more work to do yet. |

So why was 79p ordered off after getting off the 84b as they gave them time.

So why was 79p ordered off after getting off the 84b as they gave them time. The race was red lighted for 79p as his cage was exposed so he was off at that point as the cause of the red light. The time given was for 84b to get free and if he hadn't managed that he would have been off too. I should add that's my understanding of the situation, not what I was told. |

Well that's two of us that assumed the same thing. So we are both right or both very wrong |

Well that's two of us that assumed the same thing. So we are both right or both very wrong Both right, red lights were put on as 79ps roll cage was deemed to be exposed, hence he was removed as was the cause of the red light. Kerry was pretty disappointed to be removed but end of the day it's hard to argue when things are done as a safety measure, it is only a sport afterall! |

I'm not sure what the problem is with keeping fans informed but is it any wonder rumour and innuendo gets out of control when the fans are not informed about what's going on in the meeting they have paid to attend? I don't believe that to be true at all. The difficulty with any discussion with the public is the same as this board....everyone thinks they are right based on interpretation and it simply becomes unproductive (plus 80% of the public probably don't actually care). None of our most participated in sports offer any real time justification of decisions (although rugby and league try) Having been the person on the mic, it also gets really ugly really fast when ' oh but XXXXX said via the PA' gets used as a counter protest when someone (usually a family or crew member) is full of emotion and a call has be made, overturned, re made, protested etc etc |
